I-864 and DS-260 Questions
Mike E replied to Daniel L's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
This sounds like a seller financed loan. The interest from payments is income. The principal is not: it adds to her assets. The problem is that the nature of loan amortization is that income declines over time. So ideally for you, the principal is invested, and it produces investment returns. It is possible this will be required. -

It is expired right? Why test it when for $5 you can buy a pair of pants from a thrift store? I wore business formal attire to my oath. Business casual will work too. Sleeveless ok if female.

Should I hire a translator for my wife's interview?
Mike E replied to Drew3435's topic in Philippines
I recommend that. A non stop to JFK is a strong indicator that airport will have Tagalog speakers. -
Should I hire a translator for my wife's interview?
Mike E replied to Drew3435's topic in Philippines
Cool. After she gets her visa, if her port of entry is Guam (strongly recommend this port), SFO or LAX, she will be able to navigate the formal immigration process because those airports are certain to have workers who speak Tagalog, and it will not surprise me if there is at least one CBPO who speaks it. But to be safe, prepare a sheet of paper for her to print, that explains in English that, her name is _______, her primary language is Tagalog, she is immigrating to the U.S. to live with her spouse, name of spouse, mobile phone and address of spouse. Now whether this idea offends her or not, is something between her and you. -
Should I hire a translator for my wife's interview?
Mike E replied to Drew3435's topic in Philippines
If she speaks Tagalog aka Filipino, she should be given the option to conduct the interview in Tagalog. This is the general policy of consulates: English or the national language. -
The question and answer that matters is why didn’t your son petition your husband? The (truthful) reasons others had to that question are only relevant if their answers are the same as what your answer will be. So for example, if, hypothetically, it comes out that you plan to spend most of your time with your husband and use your green card as a way to visit the U.S. with more ease, that is an invalid use of a green card, and I would expect the IR-5 to be denied.

Electric vehicles have an efficiency problem
Mike E replied to Nature Boy 2.0's topic in Current Events and Hot Social Topics
Dealers and auto makers, like home builders, used the pandemic, climate change, “supply chain”, etc excuses to con consumers into paying more, suggesting that with 2 percent interest rates, 2 percent inflation, and stimulus money, they could afford it. No more stim $, no more 2%, and no gullible consumers It does not matter what it costs to make a car if consumers cannot afford it. And they cannot now. This is full employment economy paying poverty wages. -
Electric vehicles have an efficiency problem

Tesla just continues to win everywhere despite reputations for degradation of quality and service for the past 5 years. It is stunning how its competition manages to shoot itself in their feet while Tesla laughs at the world. The consumer will win: cheaper ICEV and EVs coming our way. I figure in 20 years, Tesla will be to cars, as Kleenex is to tissue paper and Aspirin is to acetylsalicylic acid. -
Petitioning my son Father
Mike E replied to Anonymous9999's topic in Bringing Family Members of US Citizens to America
I do not know where the child was born or where the father resided at the time the son was a minor, so I was not about to rule out a third way to legitimate the son. In any case, since it appears there was a relationship of sorts between the father and son before the latter reached age 21, the possibility the son can petition the father is in play. -
Because you do not have a strong earned income history and the CO has discretion to rule whether your spouse is a public charge risk. I had not realized you only wanted responses that agreed with you: Personally I think it should be, but I have seen enough of these cases over the years to know that sometimes the CO says no. I’ve contributed all I can, and I don’t wish to argue or bicker, so I won’t post more in this thread.

In Colorado, the other states, district, and territories, and no doubt in some other countries.
